Well so far, I'd call Froyo an epic fail. After the update, my droid is slower, apps stopped working, and none of the things people have really complained about like battery life are not improved. More bloatware too - software you cannot uninstall in this case. And of course, you can't revert back.
Did people not learn anything from the debacle that was Vista? If you are going to add a bunch of new toys to a successful OS, you also need to invest in making sure you don't tank the OS performance. This upgrade has been a downgrade, and the message boards seem to have that as a theme right now.
I know we've talked about this before but I am taking the plunge and rooting my phone over the holiday weekend. I've been doing a ton of reading on it and I have yet to find someone that isn't much happier with their phone for doing so. It just sucks that you have to become a pseudo-hacker these days to get optimal performance out of your device. I'll give you a head's up on how difficult/easy it was to do and how the phone runs afterward.
